Business Closing Announcement

Dear friends, customers, and supporters,

After much thought and reflection, I’ve made the decision to close Seventy One. This wasn’t an easy choice, but it’s the right one for this season of life.

I want to sincerely thank each and every one of you who supported the business — whether by being a customer, sharing kind words, or simply believing in the vision. Your support has meant the world, and I couldn’t have come this far without you.

As part of closing, I will be liquidating the machines and supplies or could buy everything at once but the legal entity LLC will be dissolved on September 1st. The locations currently hosting our machines will have the first opportunity to keep them. After that, I’ll be open to any offers and may even consider donating some to businesses that could benefit.

Though this chapter is closing, my journey of growth and service is not over. I’ve decided to pursue other passions, but I’ve also learned so much over the past few years—gaining friends, lessons, and insights that I never could have without this experience. I look forward to what comes next and hope you’ll stay connected with me for future projects.

With gratitude,
Chris Phillips

Fueling Forward Friday 🚀
Want to build a new habit?
Make it easy!

Most people try to overhaul their life overnight, but big changes stick better when they start small.

Small actions. Low friction. Big results over time.

🔧 Fueling Forward Friday 🔧

This past week, I had the pleasure of talking with Tim Loven — a seasoned automotive technician with 14 years of experience under the hood.

When I asked Tim, “What habits or traits have brought you the most success — in your work and in life?” — his answer was simple but effective:

✅ Be consistent
✅ Always be honest
✅ Let your work speak for you
✅ Embrace your natural abilities

These aren't just tips for turning wrenches — they're tools for building a solid foundation in whatever path you're on.

Let your work ethic be louder than your words. Stay true, stay real, and fuel forward. 💥

🔥 Fueling Forward Friday 🔥

Not everything deserves your energy.
Not every battle is yours to fight.
Not every opinion deserves a reaction.

This week, protect your peace.
Refocus on what truly matters — your growth, your goals, your well-being.

The rest? Let it pass. Not because you're passive, but because you're purposeful.

“The thing you fear the most could bring you to success.”

Fear doesn’t always mean stop — sometimes, it’s a sign you’re heading in the right direction. What if the very thing you're avoiding is the key to unlocking your real potential?

Lean into the fear. Face it. Use it.
Because growth doesn’t come from comfort — it comes from courage.

🔥 Fueling Forward Friday 🔥

This week, I had a conversation with Brad Thomas, a 13-year Army veteran, to talk discipline, growth, and what really fuels success.

When asked, “What’s a habit or routine that has brought you the most success?” — Brad kept it simple and powerful:

🕔 Get up early
💪 Train and repeat
🚫 Stay out of trouble

"Success doesn’t always come from doing more — sometimes, it’s about doing the right things, consistently."
